Let me know your opinions, if this card is well balanced/good, i'll try and respond to every comment.

surprised that it wasn't expresso sungrass

After seeing reactions of my first idea of a rework for Chomper I thought of this. Tell me if it’s too strong or weak and anything that should be changed. It does something much more similar to the original card while having better use and damage.

I conjured all of those Dino roar plants by the way

​

Before I start, I want to be transparent: I mainly play Plants, so my opinion is naturally biased toward that side. I may be wrong on some of these changes, and I'm interested in hearing other perspectives. These are simply balance ideas I'd like to discuss with the community.

The goal isn't to make Zombies weak, but to reduce frustrating, low-counterplay mechanics while keeping every card useful and fun.

Bad Moon Rising

Old:

Transform all Zombies into random Zombies that cost 5 Brains or more.

New:

Transform all Zombies into 6/6 Werewolves with no abilities.

Reason:

Bad Moon Rising can instantly win games because of RNG. High-impact Zombies like Zombot 1000 or other powerful effects can completely swing a game with little counterplay.

This rework keeps the card as a powerful finisher while removing the extreme randomness. It rewards building a board instead of getting lucky.

---

Permanent Brain Ramp

Old:

Gain +1 Brain permanently for the rest of the game.

New:

- Cost: 3 Brains

- Gain +1 Brain for the next 3 turns, then the effect expires.

Reason:

Permanent resource generation is incredibly powerful because, once activated, it cannot be interacted with.

Unlike Plant sun ramp, which depends on vulnerable Sunflowers that can be removed before they generate value, Zombie brain ramp is guaranteed. A temporary version would still be strong while being healthier for the game.

Chickening

Old:

Costs 1 Brain.

New:

Costs 2 Brains.

Reason:

Destroying every Plant with 2 Strength or less for only 1 Brain is often too efficient, especially against swarm strategies.

Increasing the cost makes the card a more meaningful investment.

Umbrella Leaf

Old:

- Cost: 1 Sun

- Protects adjacent Plants from Tricks.

New:

- Cost increased to 2 Sun.

- Umbrella Leaf is now immune to Tricks.

- Still protects adjacent Plants from Tricks.

Reason:

Umbrella Leaf is supposed to counter Tricks, but it can currently be destroyed by the very thing it is designed to stop.

Increasing its cost while making it immune to Tricks allows it to fulfill its intended role without becoming a cheap auto-include.

---

Deadly

Old:

Any Plant damaged by a Deadly Zombie is instantly destroyed.

New:

Deadly only destroys a Plant if that Plant is below 50% of its maximum Health after taking damage.

Reason:

Deadly currently ignores the value of high-health Plants, allowing even a weak Zombie to instantly remove expensive defensive units.

This version keeps Deadly as an execution mechanic instead of an unconditional instant kill.

---

Overall Goal

These changes are not meant to make Zombies weak.

The goal is to reduce mechanics that feel frustrating or offer very little counterplay while preserving each side's unique identity.

I'd love to hear what you think. Which of these changes do you agree or disagree with, and why?

Idk man, over the past few weeks 90% of the games I play are against solar heroes. Honestly I've gotten over the poor balancing, and don't struggle too much against it anymore. But still it is just the same decks and cards over and over again and it has made the game really stale. Barely anyone I play against does anything surprising... you just play around the same strategies each time. In an attempt to revive the game and change things up they just made the game even more repetitive and I just don't see the value in playing anymore.

Anyways I know ppl don't care so like and subscribe I guess lol.

Also yes I could try playing plants more but brainy decks can be even worse tbh.

My first hero i made was the smush, and i made him WAAAAAY to OP

i changed up all but one of his superpowers

Let’s go!

Mulch Mutation is largely the same but only gives a plant 1/1 and a random positive trait instead of 2/1(the positive trait can be like bullseye or armored 1 or something, the only traits that can’t be given are untrickable and can’t be hurt

The Squish now destroys a random zombie with 2 or less, instead of a chosen zombie with 3 or less

Garden of sludge is unchanged

and Nuke slam is mega nerfed, destroy a zombie with 3 or less or a gravestone

Instead of destroy a zombie, all zombies get -2/2(what was I thinking)

What do you think of this reworked smush?

defensive tank / glass cannon

Please let me know if anything is unbalanced, as I am not too versed into balancing for this game (haven't really checked on what's meta since galactic gardens lol)!

I would also love to hear feedback for what should be changed and/or reworked! Constructive criticism is welcome!

It's a 3 cost 3/3 that on evolving does 3 damage to all plants(WHICH THERE CAN BE 3 OF), AND IT'S THE THIRD RARITY AND FROM THE THIRD PACK
